Dependencies:
CHANGE-MESSAGE overrides the general settings of directives such as FLAGAS.
Example:
CHANGE-MESSAGE"ALL R"
CHANGE-MESSAGE"CH100 N ES135 E 10 S"
The messages affected in the last example would be COBCH0100, COBES0135 and COBCH0010.
Comments:
CHANGE-MESSAGE can take as many parameter pairs as required. If CHANGE-MESSAGE is specified multiple times, the effects are cumulative.
CHANGE-MESSAGE replaces the HIDE-MESSAGE Compiler directive. However, if you use HIDE-MESSAGE in conjunction with CHANGE-MESSAGE, the effects are also cumulative.
Serious errors cannot have their severity reduced unless they were changed to serious (from a lower severity) by another CHANGE-MESSAGE directive or the FLAGAS directive.
